In the past I purchased a SanDisk Ultra CF card because I was told the speed was much faster then the standard CF cards. So, I paid the premium and got the Ultra card and it works great.
Recently, I needed to purchase another CF card and thought I would save some money and buy the EP Memory 512MB CF card. (...)
After receiving the card I immediately installed the card to see if I made a mistake. After using the CF card I could not see and difference in how either card worked. I am not saying that the Ultra is not faster, I am just saying, I could not tell.
If you are a novice like me with digital cameras, you really do not need to spend the extra money for a faster card.

Pros: Fast, small(physical size),enough space for 4 years of school work if you don't put unnecessary things in it. Cap clips on the back of the device when you are working with it, a very nice feature for those who do not want to worry about the cap.
Cons: There is a small loop in the back for clipping a string on (if so desired) for ease of carry. However, if you do this the cap no longer clips on the back, thus you have to put the cap in a safe place until you unplug the flash drive from the computer. Myself, I dislike having to worry about caps (My last thumb-drive was retractable) was initially annoyed at this feature.
Overall: I would buy this again.
